Yours or mine

Yours or mine was made during my 2023 residency at PADA in Portugal. Chairs are a recurring motif in my sculptural work, operating as placeholders for absent figures and as invitations into the work. The chair is a universal form, but at the same time there are specific, unique differences between chairs made in different places, and this is something I often attune to during residencies. The overlapping chairs form a venn diagram, a zone of ordered entanglement where bodies and legs become merged. The minimal arrangement, stripped back to frames, could be viewed as a drawing delineating opposing forces, suggesting both desire and struggle.
